I like a wide variety of things. Some of which I'll post here. I also co-edit Nylon Stylus with Michael Constantine
The Hype Machine

Hard to describe exactly the magic behind the group known as Tiger Waves, so I’ll leave it to the description from their Bandcamp page:

“Tiger Waves is a band born of dropboxes, email attachments and CD-Rs and while the two principal songwriters living 1,000 miles apart, it isn’t surprising that the music took on the expanses of the information highway during it’s travels back and forth between the city of Big Shoulders and the Live Music Capital of the World. The tunes have no blank spots or rests but instead expand and contract in a thrilling, enchanting pulse with Reid Comstock’s whispers and strained notes cutting through the mix like a depressed, Beach Boys cast-off in the middle of a hyperactive beach party.

The music, however, isn’t necessarily the cold, detached product of two kids with MacBooks. It sounds more like a bit of cosmic sunshine-pop-flavored zeitgeist made by two music fans with some digital constraints and liberties. And one of them is a philosopher, sometimes you can totally tell.”
